Explaining weather to Americans "Imagine a donut" QRT: ScannerRadioDFW From Roanoke Police So many people are probably wondering: what is the difference between freezing rain and sleet? I mean, they can’t be that different, right? Well, we picked something completely at random—and in no way related to police work—to showcase the difference between the two. Freezing rain is liquid rain that freezes on contact and takes the shape of whatever it lands on, creating a smooth glaze on surfaces. Sleet is rain that has already frozen and then sprinkles onto roads, sidewalks, and other surfaces. Both make driving dangerous. So whether we get a smooth glaze of ice or a sprinkle on the roads this weekend, please stay home if you can. If you must drive, please do so carefully. We donut want to have to respond to any crashes this weekend that could have been avoided.
